The High Cost of Living



Christmas is one expensive holiday. Because of my small family, I have a relatively short shopping list. ("Relatively"..."family". Ouch. I really didn't mean the pun.) Regardless, count up all the CDs, DVDs, books, teddy bears, and Barbie dolls I've purchased, and it all really adds up. I'm glad Christmas only comes once a year. I'd even suggest making it every election year only, but I'm afraid the world's children might burn me in effigy.



Or worse.
